7wo night nursing schedule

During the day my 7wo eats every 2-3hrs. He used to sleep in 3-4 hr stretches at night but the past week or so he's up ever 1-2hrs for the most part.

My question is, should I be trying to console him in other ways if he wakes up in the middle of the night after only an hr? I've really just been nursing/burping/holding him in bed till he falls asleep. Should I be giving him more time between feedings at night even if he wakes up?

He is still really little. I've always nursed mine when they wake up. Even if it is only for comfort. Until around 6 months old, nothing should be done to try and "train" them to sleep longer. It is built in SIDS protection and he is also still coming off that growth spurt. Hang in there mama! If possible, co-sleeping is a wonderful thing. It saves me when I have a nursing baby.
